In a teaser for a segment on Fox News today, anchor Megyn Kelly wondered aloud about the new nuclear START treaty President Obama is about to sign with Russia.

"Now critics are asking, will the new deal leave the U.S. defenseless until it's too late? Coming up, next hour," Kelly said.

Fox then cut to footage of a nuclear bomb exploding into a mushroom cloud before going to commercial.

According to Wikipedia, "She earned her undergraduate degree in biology from Syracuse University and her J.D. from Albany Law School, where she was editor of the Albany Law Review." Then worked as a lawyer in Chicago and D.C. before joining Faux News.

I'm not defending her from your assertion that she's a "bimbo." In my mind, being smart and educated and saying stupid shit makes it worse. For that matter, Bobby Jindal was a Rhodes Scholar and Eric Cantor has a law degree and also received a masters in science from Columbia.

It's your question. Just sayin'

I think time is too valuable to watch ANY news or opinion shows on television, except maybe Fareed Zacharia's great show, GPS. I like Rachael Maddow, but even her show is mostly a waste of time. More to be learned in ten minutes of reading online, and you can always watch highlight clips.

FOX News is like a modern-day, non-stop War of the Worlds show. It isn't a news channel, it is a channel dressed up like a news channel feeding viewers the worst case scenario for everything Democrats, Liberals, and now moderates do. It is having the same mass-hysteria impact War of the Worlds had too, just slower-forming and longer-lasting.

You really must consider the possibility Megyn knows exactly what she is doing and saying. And so does most of the rest of the Fox crew. That is why they are believable--they communicate authenticity. They hear our side of things but it simply does not make sense and they have no place to put what we call the truth.

Or, they are a bunch of craven, extraordinarily cynical basterds.

I agree completely. I'm not even amused, anymore. This is irresponsible and is only going to give their followers another reason to call for violent actions.

So...what do we do? I've sent emails to FOX. I'm sure it helped. I've tried spreading facts to local followers. They say only FOX tells the truth. They have no idea that they've been brainwashed. They honestly believe we're headed toward Armageddon.

I think FOX needs to be at the receiving end of some lawsuits. If the 'baggers can file baseless suits against our government, why can't liberals file a class-action suit against FOX? Any lawyers that have some free time...this could be fun. There has to be SOME law that's being broken...continuously.

Let's recap what FoxNews spoon feeds it's Teatard followers:

Obama is a Marxist.
Obama is a Communist.
Obama is a socialist.
Obama is a baby-killer.
Obamacare will bankrupt America.
Obama is not even a U.S. citizen.
Obama's fiscal policy will destroy America.
Obama wants to take your guns away.
Obama is a racist.
Obama wants to create a Federal slave country.

And as if that's not bad enough, now Obama's arms-control policy will destroy America!

We have an entire media organization fomenting anger through lies, violent imagery and propaganda in an effort to restore the Republican Party back to power. This is just the beginning of outcome of their crusade. And the disjointed violent acts that are occurring will only worsen in frequency and intensity unless something is done.

Or should I say, Who else needs to expose them for it to make a difference?

The CCM(as you aptly put it) won't do it. MSNBC does, but it is dismissed as the Dem version of Fox (which gives Fox an excuse to ratchet things up a bit).

Folks tend to trust their Local News, and this is about the only place that this can be pushed back with some results.

Of course the local news is carried on local Fox, NBC, ABC affiliates so clearly that can't happen.

Do they not know that we have subs patrolling constantly and these subs have the capability to respond to any nuclear attack even if everyone in the U.S. is dead? Thank God for Fareed Zakaria and GPS. In his last show he cited a report that said we could still maintain our nuclear umbrella with only 311 nukes. 100 of those would be land based ICBMs with the rest being from bombers and subs.

"Nuclear weapons are totally irrational, totally inhumane, good for nothing but killing, possibly destructive of life on earth and civilization." RONALD REAGAN

"Defenseless until its too late"

Horrors...I usually see this...uh, lady, on the monitors at the gym and, blessedly, without sound.
I'd recommend acting school for our kitchen curtain-wearing miss 'cuz her rendition of fear comes off more like young Dolly Parton with Barbara Bush's eye disease rather than any suggestion of terror.

Cue Don Henley's "Dirty Laundry." I'm not a big believer in "Hell," but forcing Fox News on anyone would be punishment beyond any inhumane means available.

I think read on the Internets somewhere that Megan Kelly or Megyn Kelli or whatever, that blonde anchorwoman from Fox News was into bestiality or something like that. I think I heard that Fox News paid off an intern named Andrea Mackris to keep it quiet. I think that was the story.

Why Fox didn't play out that segment with a clip of Jason Robards wandering around Lawrence, Kansas, aimlessly as he died from radiation poisoning I will never know.

As it happens, I was a student in Lawrence during the filming. Good times. I show clips of the movie to my students now and it freaks them out...

...when I tell them this is your brain on FOX News.

Thank goodness that footage will keep Goldwater from being elected!

She looks more and more like Brooke Shields, especially when she gets that big eyed, "this is a scary part!" expression

Is he really feeling abused, or is this goat just bragging about his conquests and looking for a frivolous lawsuit.
You'll get the full story only on Fox.

Brought to you by FOX NEWS, a subsidiary of NEWS CORP, the very same corporation that successfully defended a law suit by stating that there is no law obligating FOX NEWS reports to be truthful.

I have a masters degree. I have tons of debt to repay. Does sum librel want to pay me some big bucks to say crazy ?hit on the tv. Cause I never thought about that as a job skilll but hell I am out of work and could really see myself saying crazy s)it for lots of money. Frankly it sounds about right with all the. Crazies out there ranting and raving about the death panels, the socialism,the Obama takeover. Where the fuc& were these people during the Bush era. Hello AMA act of 2003, hello patriot act, hello unsustainable craziness on wall street and on main street, plus there is the whole going to war in two countries one of which was based on who shi(ty intelligence and the other where the main objective of catching the guy that started it all still as of yet has not been captured. I know Obama hasn't done it either. I am talked out. Out.
